I am filing a formal complaint against ********************** regarding an inaccurate account reported to the credit bureaus.ORIGINAL Business Name: ********************** Account Number: ******************* Amount Reported: $131.30 Date of Transaction: [Insert Date]This account was originally prepaid by ******** as part of a contractual agreement. When ******** discontinued payments, ******* continued service without my consent and falsely assigned financial liability to me. Upon discovering this issue, I formally requested the account be closed, yet ******* failed to process this correctly. Instead, they wrongfully reported a delinquency to Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion, negatively impacting my credit.Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. 1681(i)(a), credit bureaus are required to investigate disputed items and remove inaccurate or unverifiable information within 30 days. Despite previous attempts to resolve this issue, ******* has failed to correct the error, violating my consumer rights.This debt lacks legal standing as I never agreed to take on financial responsibility for continued service. Verizons reporting is not only misleading but also damaging, as it affects my creditworthiness and ability to obtain financial opportunities. The companys negligence in handling this matter raises concerns about their consumer protection practices.Requested Resolution:I demand the immediate removal of this inaccurate account from my credit report and a written confirmation of the deletion. If ******* fails to resolve this within 30 days, I will escalate my complaint to the ************************************ (****), the ************************ (***), and the ***************************************. I am also prepared to seek damages for harm caused.I expect a prompt response and resolution.Business Response

I have reviewed Diversified Adjustment Service, Inc.'s response and find it unsatisfactory. They fail to provide proper debt validation as required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (*****) 15 U.S.C. 1692g(b). They have not proven the legal validity of this debt, including a contract with my signature or proof that I assumed financial responsibility.
The $131.30 balance is not a valid consumer debt but the result of improper billing by *******. Diversified acknowledges my dispute but refuses to take corrective action by removing the account from collections. Their failure to act demonstrates a lack of due diligence.
The claim that they do not report to credit bureaus does not absolve them of liability for attempting to collect an invalid debt. Their offer of a payment plan is inappropriate since no legal obligation exists.
I demand immediate closure of this collection account with written confirmation that it will no longer be pursued. They must formally acknowledge that no further collection efforts will be made and confirm that no negative reporting has or will be shared with credit bureaus, debt buyers, or collection agencies. If they insist the debt is valid, they must provide proof of an original signed contract and itemized billing records.
If these actions are not taken within 10 days, I will escalate the matter by filing formal complaints with the ************************************ (****), the ************************ (***), and the New York State ************************ for violations of consumer protection laws. I will also pursue legal remedies under the ***** for unfair collection practices.
Please provide an update on the next steps to resolve this matter properly.Business Response
